Wonderful kitchen and common area for a crowd. We had one rainy day during our stay so we had plenty of room to work a jigsaw puzzle, do crafts and play card games. We also went to Canton Trade Days, some used the kayaks and others fished. We had one excellent meal of fresh catfish. Host is very accommodating and quick to respond.

Amazing stay

We came from Washington State to visit my sister for her wedding. Overall, we needed the space and it fit perfectly. For our big family, we enjoyed the Lake house so much. Made many memories, the kids loved it. And my wife did to all my family enjoyed it. I will definitely come back to this place again. Love the wildlife out here, too.
